Wild Walking: Tips for Spiritual Journey

Last updated on: July 11, 2023 at 8:38 pm By Paul Tanner

You don’t have to read very far in the Bible to find wandering people. The book of Genesis is full of people moving to locate God. Adam and Eve leave the manicured pathways of the garden for a rocky and unpredictable wild world. God’s people found the promised land as Abraham, left it to survive famine, and journeyed back following Moses and Joshua. And while we may not walk through actual wild lands, every faith journey involves wild walking. What... Read more

Cloud and Fire: Searching for Faith

Last updated on: June 5, 2023 at 9:28 pm By Paul Tanner

When the Israelites left Egypt, God led them by a cloud during the day and a pillar of fire during the night. Then they arrived at the Red Sea, and God provided a miraculous escape from Pharoah. But when the realities of the wilderness settled in, they lost their faith. Despite all the signs performed by God, they complained to and about Moses. They wondered if they would have been better off in Egypt. The wilderness will do that, make... Read more

Last updated on: May 23, 2023 at 11:10 pm By Paul Tanner

When Jesus saw the large crowd in Matthew 14, He had compassion on them. He took time to care for them and heal them. When it was time to eat, He turned to His disciples and gave them a simple directive. You feed them, and the disciples found the resources to do just that with a bit of supernatural help. Jesus still calls us to serve the lost, lonely, hopeless, and hurting. He is inviting you to bring your limited... Read more

Jesus’ Harshest Criticism Were Reserved for the Religious

Last updated on: May 14, 2023 at 8:21 pm By Paul Tanner

0 Comments

Image by Pawel Kozera from Pixabay Whenever Christians talk about the love part of Jesus’ teaching, someone will accuse that the truth is being watered down. Jesus was and remains a complex person. He was full of love and truth, and Christians should remember that His harshest criticism was spoken to the religious elite of His day. You Shouldn’t Fix What Isn’t Broken Imagine being so confident in understanding God’s word that you miss God in the flesh. But before... Read more

When Jesus becomes the Lord of our life, we become new creations. Like His disciples, we, too, have heard and believed the words of life. Out of the overflow of our hearts, our mouths speak. What do the words you say reveal about your heart? Clearing Out the Old Self No one is perfect. There will be times as a parent, a spouse, a child, a friend, or a co-worker when you speak according to the old self. Words... Read more

Followers of Jesus are called to be salt and light to the world. We carry hope in our words and our deeds. Let us be like the early church and get into good trouble rather than headlines filled with our battles and failures. Good Trouble In Acts 17, Paul and Silas find themselves accused of causing chaos to the whole world. Day after day, they proclaimed the good news of Jesus Christ.

The last soil in the parable of the sower is the good soil. Jesus describes this soil as one that produces more than is expected. Jesus’s followers should expect their life and heart to reflect this bountiful harvest of good. Reaping and Sowing I have been going through the four different soils of the heart found in Matthew 13. If you have not read the first three soils, you can look back at my earlier posts. The last soil is... Read more
